Can we get a new dungeon?

So you're saying, revert to 1.0?
You know what happened to 1.0, right?

The bad thing that happened in 1.0 was the dev team not listening to sh*t people said in Beta and beyond. Everything was ignored. It doesn't mean all ideas from 1.0 were bad, it was just crushed under the weight of incompetence that was the 1.0 feedback. to use the term, correlation does not imply causation. The flavor of 1.0 dungeons was a part of 1.0, but just because 1.0 failed doesnt mean it failed because of that.

A lot of what killed 1.0 is gone, including the people who killed it. I don't think bland, straight line, monotonous dungeons are an improvement. The game is playing itself Jon.. THE GAME IS PLAYING ITSELF JON.

Final Hallway XIV, straight lines only.

I agree with the OP here. But I also fear not matter what they did, optimal speedrunning will still be the king (and I dont dislike that), so all the extra stuff will probably be passed up in DF. I do wish that "Elixir" chests contained something not shit. Maybe just put Gil or chances at items in them... it would be nice if some of those side chests had a chance to drop more synth mats or gear. Could even throw in some mechanics like "Clear all adds in X hall in under 4 minutes to make Y boss drop 2/3 chests instead of 1/2"... rewards can be speed running friendly. It can work many ways.

I'd personally just kill for a dungeon that wasn't a straight line from A to B :|, but thats just me. But besides that, a lot of 1.0 ideas were good, just in a bad environment with a lead who didnt listen to play feedback at all. Though I must admit I think I'd of liked 1.0 better as a game if it continued to grow as it was and was around today, than I like 2.0 today. I think they threw away too many good ideas that could of used refining.
